About Me

Welcome to my page. My name is Ron Burgandy, and I'm kind of a big deal... ok, maybe not. But who really reads this shit anyway? The name... Gary Shaine Horrie & this is my story. Just about everything you hear on this page is me & only me. I know what you're thinking, this guy must not have any friends. Well, maybe not, but I like to think I do. This been an on-going solo project for me for the last 10 or so years.
I am also the former drummer for HOT ACTION COP based out of Nashville, TN! I've played for many different bands around the Central Illinois area for years including StepDown, The Shake, Braille, Dirty Little Mimes, & Krankinstein (way back in the day!) Anyway, hope ya like what you hear! If so, drop me a comment & let me know! If you're bored, check out my complete BIO in the blogs above!
The next show I'm doing will be with Carina Lirola on January 16, 2009 @ The Brixton in Redondo Beach, CA. Check Corina out on my top friends! The show will be opening for George Lynch for the Guitar Players Ball. Brought to you by Rock n Roll GangStars Apparel & UNK Guitars! Also appearing on on Bass is Cody Barra. On guitar will be Bob Molton.
Another cool thing that I've done is played drums on the Liberty & Justice song "Another Nail" which featured Sebastian Bach (Skid Row) on Vocals, Tim Gains (Stryper) on Bass & Kerri Kelli (Vince Neil, Alice Cooper, Slash's Snake Pit)
I also do freelance graphics/websites if anyone is interested in any work, check out www.FlashpotDesigns.com

My Interests

Member Since: 4/6/2005

Sounds Like: Good question. Please let me know!!! Sometimes I may say... "Sounds Like: Crap?", but hey, everyone is their own worst critic. I love feedback. Since there is only one person working on everything, I'm sure some elements get overlooked. I don't claim to be perfect. ;)

Here's a small taste of my old band StepDown performing Tool's Aenima @ Kep's Place in Washington on August 4, 2007... This is prolly the worst we've (I've) EVER played, but the only video of this that I have. Enjoy!

Well... here ya have it. It's a little drum solo I did back in August 2004 with one of my old bands Braille. This was filmed in Pontiac, IL.

Here's another short clip of the same show in Pontiac, IL. A little sample of Pantera - Walk. Yes, I'm singing it as well. Too bad the sound pretty much sucks! Or wait, maybe it's just me. Oh well, enjoy!
Type of Label: Major
